Confirmation of Color-dependent Centroid Shift Measured After 1.8 Years with HST

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal, 2023
We measured the precise masses of the host and planet in the OGLE-2003-BLG-235 system, when the lens and source were resolving, with 2018 Keck high resolution images.

KMT-2022-BLG-2397: Brown Dwarf at the Upper Shore of the Einstein Desert

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal, 2023
We measure the Einstein radius of the single-lens microlensing event KMT-2022-BLG-2397 to be θ _E = 24.8 ± 3.6 μ as, placing it at the upper shore of the Einstein Desert, 9 ≲ θ _E / μ as ≲ 25, between free-floating planets (FFPs) and bulge brown dwarfs ...

Binary-lens Microlensing Degeneracy: Impact on Planetary Sensitivity and Mass-ratio Function

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal
Gravitational microlensing is a unique method for discovering cold planets across a broad mass range. Reliable statistics of the microlensing planets require accurate sensitivity estimates.

Two Low Mass-ratio Microlensing Planets and Two Types of Central-resonant Degeneracy

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal
We present observations and analysis of two low planet/host mass-ratio ( q ) microlensing planets discovered in high-magnification events. KMT-2025-BLG-0811Lb has q  ∼ 4.5 × 10 ^−5 , and a Bayesian analysis favors a super-Earth/mini-Neptune orbiting an M-

Systematic KMTNet Planetary Anomaly Search. XII. Complete Sample of 2017 Subprime Field Planets

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal
We report the analysis of four unambiguous planets and one possible planet from the subprime fields (Γ ≤ 1 hr ^−1 ) of the 2017 Korea Microlensing Telescope Network (KMTNet) microlensing survey, to complete the KMTNet AnomalyFinder planetary sample for ...

Microlensing bias on the detection of strong lensing gravitational wave

open access: yes, 2023
Identifying strong lensing gravitational wave (SLGW) events is of utmost importance in astrophysics as we approach the historic first detection of SLGW amidst the growing number of gravitational wave (GW) events.

Four Planets Found through Microlensing Events Involving Faint Source Stars

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal
To conduct a comprehensive demographic study of microlensing planets, it is essential to detect all planetary signals that exceed a predefined threshold through a detailed analysis of survey data.

OGLE-2016-BLG-1195 AO: Lens, Companion to Lens or Source, or None of the Above?

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal, 2023
We systematically investigate Vandorou et al.’s claim to have detected the host star of the low-mass-ratio ( q < 10 ^−4 ) microlensing planet OGLE-2016-BLG-1195Lb, via Keck adaptive optics (AO) measurements Δ t = 4.12 yr after the event’s peak ( t _0 ...

Wavelet Transforms of Microlensing Data: Denoising, Extracting Intrinsic Pulsations, and Planetary Signals

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal, 2023
Wavelets are waveform functions that describe transient and unstable variations, such as noise. In this work, we study the advantages of discrete and continuous wavelet transforms (DWTs and CWTs) of microlensing data to denoise them and extract their ...
